Killzone: Shadow Fall's Two New Maps

Share.

Hel-gasp!

By David Witmer

After releasing a new "comedic" multiplayer execution pack last week, Sony has followed up with the release today of two free multiplayer maps for Killzone: Shadow Fall, called The Terminal and Stormgracht.

The Terminal is located behind the Wall of the New Helghan area, and is a building used both as a prison and defense facility. The map is promised to challenge players’ skills with navigation in dense mazes of platforms, floors, and tracks. The trains, however, are said to be what players should be afraid of most.

The Stormgracht is basically a junkyard. It is filled with rusty scrap-metal, and located in the toxic area of New Helghan. Tunnels and pipes can serve as routes for stealthy players through the junkyard, while the main channel of the map is relatively open, to be used by more bold players.

A dangerous and exciting feature in this download is the spillway that dominates a large area of the map. It can open up at any time and wipe out everything in its path.

While The Terminal challenges players’ navigational skills, The Stormgracht map will be largely tactical in nature, and will make players constantly change their play-style.

What do you think of these maps? Will you be picking these up? Let us know in the comments.
